Hot Shopping: A Condo-Dweller’s Dream at CB2

Parvez Taj's Birds on a Wire is among the exclusive art pieces available at CB2

After several delays, CB2, the sister store of Crate and Barrel, is finally open at the corner of Queen and Bathurst streets. Known for its aesthetically spare pieces designed for small spaces, this is the chain’s first location outside of the United States. The building’s original masonry has been restored, and large windows showcase the varied offerings inside, including furniture, lighting fixtures, items for the kitchen and dining room, and decor accents such as pillows, vases and artwork. The popular “One of a Finds” collection is also here, with limited-edition pieces made by artisans from around the world. Open daily. 651 Queen St. W., 416-366-2828.
